Youtube video thumbnails

Post by tomastenerife »

Ive set up the newest beta version, 312 i think it is, and it is just great.

I notice that you have added youtube to the stuff which to me is perfect as I want to set up a parallel video gallery on my site.

However, when I add a youtube video as an item and it works great, there is no thmubnail, just a white traffic sign. I know it isnt released yet but can you please tell me how to create thumbnails for these vids?

Hi,
see: https://www.phoca.cz/documents/2-phoca-g ... ube-videos
This way title, description, YouTube link and filename will be imported. If you don't want to import data from YouTube, don't forget to add an image into a Filename input form field. Thumbnails cannot be created from Youtube video, so you have to add an image to create a medium thumbnail which will be displayed in the thumbnail image list view (in category view).
Kind regards,
Benno
